Terminal Tackle

Despite being on the carp scene for just a matter of months, Taska Carp has made an excellent debut with some innovative carp fishing tackle.


The Baseline Tungsten range consists of seven products, with the main emphasis on pinning down your end tackle. Tungsten-impregnated rubber is used to give them that all-important weight, and items such as the Sinkers can be slid up the hook link to pin down the rig at the business end. All of the beads are housed on a fine-gauge wire, much like a conventional float stop, allowing them to be effortlessly applied to the line. The Sinkers come in small, medium and large versions for varying applications.

The Tungsten Beads are perfect for rigs such as the naked chod. Unlike a lot of rubber beads on the market, they sink like a brick, which is a requirement of the naked chod.

Next are the Line Aligner Sleeves. Available in packets of six, they feature sleeves that create an aggressive curve. Unlike conventional shrink tubing, the tungsten-impregnated rubber aids in counterbalancing pop-ups and keep the whole rig pinned down. There are sizes in the range to cater for different sizes and patterns of hook.

Fans of the Withy Pool rig will know how difficult it is to create the trademark curve in the shrink tubing. To overcome this, the Baseline Range features the Withy Curve Creator, which makes it effortless when creating this devastating rig. Once again these sleeves are available in sizes to cater for large and small hooks.
